Among reports recently taken by the Russellville Police Department (RPD):

June 30 — DWI on East 16th Street. Police observed a green Mitsubishi Montero “being driven erratically” near Woodbrook Apartments, weaving across the westbound lane, traveling from the turning lane to the curb and fluctuating in acceleration. After stopping the vehicle, the officer smelled a strong odor of alcohol and asked the driver to perform a series of field sobriety tests, which he failed.

The man was placed under arrest and transported to RPD for a Blood Alcohol Content (BAC) test, where he tested a .23.

The man was given citations for his second DWI, careless/prohibited driving, following too close and driving with a suspended license.

July 3 — Public intoxication on Marina Road. Police were dispatched to Lake Dardanelle State Park where they found an intoxicated man and woman arguing in a camp area packing items into a small vehicle. When the officer arrived, the man walked several feet away from the vehicle and sat down, and remained silent for an extended period before responding to the officer’s question of what he was doing.

The man told police he was having a disagreement with his girlfriend, and his emotional state would fluctuate from being calm to upset and confrontational, sometimes yelling profanities loud enough they could be heard by other campers.

The woman said the man believed another man in a nearby campsite had been talking bad about him, at which case the man began yelling. According to the report, the man continued to get agitated and would yell every time someone else tried to talk, and was placed under arrest.

The man became angry and began yelling and using profanity after the officer transported him without getting property out of the vehicle the man was demanding. The man continued yelling profanity out of the back window as the officer drove down the road. The man fell asleep prior to arriving at the jail, but afterward while waiting for a correction officer began complaining about the heat and the time it was taking for him to be taken inside, and afterward became upset about his property and began yelling again.

July 4 — Assault on East E Street. Officers were dispatched to East E Street in reference to a physical disturbance, where they met a woman who said she’d been visiting her friends at their house for approximately two hours, when one of her friends drunkenly passed out on the couch.

According to the woman, the drunken man then awoke and began yelling at her, and started to push her. The woman said the man then punched her twice in her left breast before she managed to get away and contact law enforcement.

Upon being questioned by police, the man was unable to provide any usable comments due to his high level of intoxication.
